Bluetooth Tethering

Has anyone had any luck with Bluetooth tethering? When my Transformer tablet & Rezound were stock, I could tether the tab to the phone. Both are on JB ROMs now and it indicates I am connected, but I can't get data on the Transformer. I don't know it the problem is with the phone or the tablet.

How to you capture a screenshot on this build?

Hey guys how do you get a screenshot on this build, I've tried the power button plus the home button in the stock build. I've also tried various other button combinations without luck. Thanks for the help
[HTC Rezound] lukester01:
screen shot

I turned on the screenshot from the power off menu. That way I don't have to remember some crazy key combination that is tough to execute.

It is then save to SD card under Pictures-screenshots
[HTC Rezound] gleggie:
Did you try holding power and volume down?
[HTC Rezound] loglew:
Thanks... This worked great!
[HTC Rezound] DCnovicky:
aren't these rom's based off the Global Leak? as referred to in the op

What is the recommended HBOOT and Radio for this ROM?

Quote:

RADIO: 2.22.10.0801r, 2.22.10.0803r

HBOOT: 2.27

not the stock rom his wifes phone is on

latest update

I haven't updated in a while (2 months). I'm thinking about bringing it to the latest ROM but do I have to update the kernel as well? I'm running HIRO from 2 months ago.
[HTC Rezound] zkrp5108:
Running 4/20 and normally I don't complain about battery but I am experiencing extreme battery drain not sure why though.

Phone dropping data

I'm not sure if this a ROM/Rezound/or Verizon issue but the past few week I can not keep my rezound from dropping the data connection from 4G down to 3G then to 1X and then nothing multiple times a day. The only way I can get 4G back is to reboot my phone and then with in about 5 min I've lost it again. Is this just a Rezound problem or a ROM issue I had this happen prior to loading this ROM but not this bad. I've searched all over and seen a lot of blame on the sim card, battery cover, ex... I've replace my battery cover with no help. Its driving me crazy! Anyone know if there is a fix for this?
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
I have not had any issues like that at all. My 4G remains connected and stable all day. I'm using the most recent build of this rom and FunkyKernel 3.3.5
[HTC Rezound] lukester01:
battery

The default install I have noticed will do that. I found the main culprit is MAPS and GOOGLE NOW. In maps, turn off 'report from this device'. Use an app like WiFi-Matic to turn off wifi when you're not near your normally used routers. I have chosen to leave google now on, but it is a huge battery sucker also. Next install a wakelock detector. Find out if an app you installed is malfunctioning and keeping the phone awake when it should not. I just had Out of Milk totally malfunction and it had a wakelock on for 1hr23min when I had not even used it that day. It was trying to sync and got stuck or something. An uninstall and reinstall fixed it. The wakelock detecting will also tell you if it's your email program constantly checking for new mail. My wife had hers set to every 5 min!!

Sometimes even when I am charging via USB it is actually discharging (with screen on), though at a slower rate, because the phone is using so much juice that the USB .5mA is not enough to get it to positive territory. For instance, right now it shows -51mA, while I am plugged in. When the screen goes off it will be charging though, because the screen is the real battery hog.

Potential Fix for Device Encryption

Fly, I think have a pretty good idea what needs to be modified to get device encryption to work properly. Looks like they are entirely files that can be injected post-build, and it should allow TWRP to do a "proper" wipe against data so the resultant filesystem is properly created to perform the initial encryption routine after the initial boot.

I'll give it a shot tonight, and see what happens, and let you know the results.
[HTC Rezound] loglew:
Thanks a.mcdear, Im thinking its something Verizon is doing based on data usage or a hardware issue.
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
Yes. You need a kernel that's updated past 5/2 if you upgrade to any new Rom.
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
As far as encryption. I've seen other device encryption fixes. So I know what to do. Just didn't know we needed it.
[HTC Rezound] aphlatoon:
Woops, already upgraded to 5/19 before reading your response. It seems to be running fine, should I leave it as is or upgrade the HIRO kernel? Kernel flash is the same process from TWRP as flashing a ROM correct?
[HTC Rezound] hceuterpe:
I think it might be related to the radio. I had the .12 against a Desensed ROM for the longest time, and my office @ work is in a total dead spot, so they have cell repeaters. The repeaters don't pass LTE, just CDMA. My phone gets really confused by the end of the day and I often see it drop down to 1X, and then suddenly try (and fail) to connect at LTE. I've also seen this behavior when I was driving in the rockies on i-70. VZW had a 3G signal, but a weak one and my Rezound couldn't lock on to a data connection.

Your issue sounds a lot like mine, and that was without CM at all (and on ICS of course).

---------- Post added at 04:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:54 PM ----------

Looks like modifying, the fstab.vigor file in boot.img, and the recovery fstab file, right? Without the second change in the recovery fstab, it looks like TWRP doesn't create the filesystem for data properly.

I can easily inject both files myself, but I'd love it if it was included in a future release:D
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Actually i stopped doing it automatically.

[MENTION=3865970]flyhalf[/MENTION]

You try a brunch since i sent you that pull request?
[HTC Rezound] cristianpark:
When you flash a CM build, you should end up with the default Kernel AFAIK (I have 3.0.79 g8fc96cf david@Flyhalf #1 i.e) and you are good, If you're S-ON you should extract the kernel (boot.img) and flash it via fastboot as I understand. To flash another kernel you should be able to do so from TWRP or CMW (I prefer the last because TWRP was giving me some errors flashing few ROM's)
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
[MENTION=3419683]Snuzzo[/MENTION] it will go into my 5/24 build tonight. I haven't built since the merge.

Hopefully I can hurry the encryption into it.
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
K only reason i ask, i sent my project to an s on tester. Going to start working on including it in device tree.
[HTC Rezound] hceuterpe:
I tried to enable encryption. There was some strange behavior with CM10.1 trying to encrypt the internal storage vfat, in addition to the data partition. So I remove "encryptable" option in the vold.fstab for the internal storage and limited to data.

However there is definitely an issue with my phone/data connectino after encryption is enabled. For some reason, my phone permanently thinks I'm in airplane mode, even if that setting is turned off. It appears I can still enable bluetooth and WiFi...:confused:
[HTC Rezound] bunchies:
Bump for woot curiosity?
[HTC Rezound] brenuga:
What is the point of device encryption, I don't get it? Is that like encrypting your hard drive? If so I would think that is a very niche feature unless you are a big time enterprise user, in which case you probably shouldn't be running a custom ROM on the rezound, lol

Edit: nm, answered my own question.

http://www.howtogeek.com/141953/how-to-encrypt-your-android-phone-and-why-you-might-want-to/
[HTC Rezound] hceuterpe:
The problem with I think even Sense 4, if you utilize ActiveSync as is fairly common in the enterprise, is they don't support more stringent security connection mechanisms vs. what s

is in stock AOSP. It's pretty appalling on HTC's end how they can't provide a feature that's available in the base Android since at least ICS.
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
Got the LTE toggle switch fixed. So that will work in 5/24. I just now starting to work on encryption.
[HTC Rezound] bunchies:
Ohhh what?! :D ahhhhhhhhh woot! woot!
[HTC Rezound] V0latyle:
So what happened to the CRT screen on/off?
[HTC Rezound] aphlatoon:
DLNA not working

Just FYI, the DLNA has not worked on any of these versions. When the phone is stock, it does work.
[HTC Rezound] bacon612:
This is a minor cosmetic feature but I do miss it too.
[HTC Rezound] hceuterpe:
Any idea why enabling encryption with the mods I put in fwould have knocked out my cell radio completely, keeping from turning it on at all?
[HTC Rezound] gleggie:
I think CM removed it in the latest builds, not sure if its gonna come back or not
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
No idea. Doesn't the recovery have to format data special though?
[HTC Rezound] hceuterpe:
I think the key to recovery formatting it properly is to set this in recovery fstab:

/data ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p35	length=-16384

I'm not sure if you released a new TWRP as well? I think I had to update TWRP img for it notice the 16k offset from the end of the data partition. Looks like after I updated the recovery.img with this, TWRP formatted it properly.

Oh looks like you updated 10 hours ago:)

Not sure why was it renamed fstab.qcom instead of fstab.vigor? Doesn't fstab.<name> have to match init.<name>.rc?

You also put in additional mods for recovery as well...perhaps I should try to flash your new release and wipe:D

WiFi Issue

WiFi Stuck....it will not turn on.
[HTC Rezound] bunchies:
Details? WiFi is working fine on the latest
[HTC Rezound] tracker01:
it will not turn on...this is fresh install 5/24/13 wipe everything about 5 times.
[HTC Rezound] kpritchard:
I tend to get this issue all the time to be quite honest with you...the only thing that I do (I am S-ON), is fastboot boot boot.img and it usually works after doing this one time. I have to do it every morning (I turn off my phone at night). So pretty much on reboot of the phone the wifi stops working. I'm not entirely sure why this happens...I've really had it happen ever since I left the 5/09 build, haven't really had much luck with trying to find the answer either.
[HTC Rezound] lukester01:
You are having to do it every reboot because you are leaving out part of the fastboot command

to make it permanent you must have the word flash in there.

fastboot FLASH boot boot.img
[HTC Rezound] kpritchard:
Ha! Rookie mistake, much appreciated.
[HTC Rezound] hceuterpe:
If you are forgetting some of the parameters of the command line flash, you should just use the AIO toolkit for the Rezound:)
[HTC Rezound] lukester01:
get internal storage back

oooops. messed up wife internal storage. I think I formatted it. Now when her phone is connected to the computer only the SD card appears, not the internal storage. Also I have noticed that after connecting hers to a computer and then disconnecting it, the phone says something to the effect of storage needs formatting. How can I fix this? A reboot seems to make it work again. But worried this could be causing other problems.

I think I actually wiped it from recovery with amon ra.
[HTC Rezound] lukester01:
display stays on on reboot.

When the phone boots, then screen goes dark (as it should), but screen doesn't actually turn off, and softkeys stay lit up. If I want it to not sit in this state I have to hit the power button to 'wake', then hit it again to actually turn the screen off and darken the softkeys.

Why is this? It is only a problem if I reboot and forget to do the routine to turn the sceen off. But if I do forget, bye bye battery.

This is not a new issue. I've seen it for some time, just decided I'd ask to see if I was the only one, or if this is something that can be corrected.
[HTC Rezound] adavit:
You aren't the only one, it happens to me too. It also happens with both stock kernels and funkybean or hiro kernel.
[HTC Rezound] RebelShadow:
Does anyone remember how to make ringtones repeat or loop. My mp3 & wav ringtones ring once then nothing. I remember it waw discussed here earlier but I can't find it. I think it was a change needed to be made in build prop.

I would like to know that as well.

Encryption

I flashed the newest zip and boot.img of 5/24

I get this now in logcat:

E/Cryptfs (119): Cannot get size of block device.

Renaming fstab.qcom back to fstab.vigor and updating the init.rc file, rebuilding boog.img and reflashing kernel seemed to get the encryption process going again...
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
Yeah. 5/25 will have that fixed. Well should.
[HTC Rezound] hceuterpe:
Once I set it back to fstab.vigor, it knocks out my cell radio like i did before...
[HTC Rezound] mengma021:
I have flash the 24/5 version ,that I found google play disappeared.as well as the google acount

the result is that there is some app doesnt work

such as Pushbullet

I wonder if it needs to flash the GAPPS.

thank you sooo much!!
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
You'll need to install gapps afterwards. I quit putting it into the ROM just to help with download time on goo.
[HTC Rezound] bunchies:
So does this mean we flash gapps manually? Or is that only a clean flash or something

The rom zip size didn't bother me btw
[HTC Rezound] adavit:
Pretty sure its only on a clean flash. If you're dirty flashing you should have them installed from your previous builds
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
Negative. The installer wipes /system prior to installation, so you have to reinstall gapps every time. As long as you do so before leaving recovery, everything will remain configured.
[HTC Rezound] adavit:
Really? Huh....I haven't had any problems with gapps not working or I haven't paid much attention to what they're used for... Lol shows how much I know
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
Going to post a 5/25 soon. I got the back_mic to work so if anyone has any feedback or amplified audio coming threw the earpiece. It's fixed. And a kernel upstream to 3.0.80 will be in 5/25. I finally moved the liblights to the vigor tree so they do work properly now.

EDIT: Uploading now :) You must be on the stock kernel that comes with 5/25 to have the fixed in call earpiece feedback.
[HTC Rezound] V0latyle:
So I think I'm going to fork my own branch of AOSP that is completely without a UI...users will rely solely on haptic feedback and sounds.

Nah.

But seriously...I don't get it...why does System UI keep crashing? It's getting to the point where app defaults are getting reset...

Oh, and any chance of the gapps package getting updated?

Nope. No themes. I do use Apex, instead of Trebuchet...but I have consistently seen these issues across almost the entire history of CM10.1, Others are reportedly having better success so I have to wonder what I'm doing wrong.

Download Troubles

I've been trying to grab the 5/25 build from the Goo.im link on the OP, but the server is not responding on occasion, and the download (if I am lucky to get it to start), is ridiculously slow. Once, it was actually counting in BYTES per second! I know it's not my ISP connection as I can download from other sites at ~2.5MB/s. Anyone else experiencing this or know what's going on?

Nice to see another Hokie on here! I'm about to graduate in the CS dept. Small world

Anyway, just wanted to say that overall this ROM works about as well as the CM9 build, and even better in some areas. Thanks! I'm having one issue: getting some System UI crashes when using Maps to find a new location. It doesn't happen all the time, but enough where it becomes annoying. I'm on the 5/17 build if that helps. Has this been fixed in later nightly builds?

Also, I'm used to being forced to wipe everything when I update builds (which is why I tend to stay on the same build for a while). Is it safe to simply install OTA updates from GooManager or whatever it's called without doing anything extra?
[HTC Rezound] caryzub:
anyone know of a fix for the mic not working in hangounts?
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
Still being worked on.
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Typically unless there are major changes, you can get away with just wiping cache and flashing the latest nightly. I'd suggest making a back up just in case you have issues.

I don't usually do the whole "search for your own answers" thing, but in this case, literally everything you need to know about rooting, flashing, and getting S-OFF on your phone is just a Google search away. The procedures for the Rezound are pretty well documented in several places on the web. If you aren't very familiar already with how to get root and flash ROMs on your phone, it's a necessary piece of knowledge before you can do what you are inquiring about here.
[HTC Rezound] DaDroidDude:

Thanks.

But I don't see a menu item to flash a ROM.

[HTC Rezound] wildstang83:
All these toolkits and installers are really only hurting the community. Not very many folks besides the developers know how to manually do anything. They all rely on these tools to do it for them.

My suggestion to anyone that doesn't know how to install a rom:

Learn how to install the JDK on your computer and set it to your path.

Download the Android SDK and set it in your path.

Learn how to use ADB and Fastboot commands.

Once you have did all that you will be pretty much set. If you are S-On, please look at Q3 of the FAQ, that long boring post right below the main post of this thread.

Why do all of this?

Because flashing a rom is not as simple as installing an app from Google Play. There are procedures to go through that must be followed every time you flash a new rom. Do not just go into it clueless.
[HTC Rezound] Sheldor1967:
And... Nandroid! Nandroid! Nandroid! :D

I keep reading about folks trying to get back to the version that worked well for them. That's why I always do a Nandroid backup... Or whatever it might be on other recoveries. If you have a great setup but want to see what the latest is like, then save it so you can return to it if things don't work out on the new one...

Totally agree with Stang, shortcuts aren't always the best route and understanding what you are doing is the best way to insure that you don't bugger it up.

Happy Flashing Everyone!
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
It's only to flash the kernel, you still have to flash the rom itself through the recovery on your phone.

So download your rom, open up the zip, copy boot.img to your pc, copy the rom to your phone, flash it through recovery, boot your phone to the bootloader, flash the boot.img from your pc to the phone.
[HTC Rezound] tigerxchaos:
These are the days of instant gratification with no prior effort. Everyone wants something handed to them instead of having to learn it for themselves. I'm still new to rooting and flashing ROMs, but I've gotten quite good at googling for the answers to my questions. As a result, I have a much better understanding of how my phone works and how to fix it myself when I run into a problem or bootloop my phone. Now, I only need to pester you guys when I want to give a heads up on something I experienced with the ROM. I simply don't understand why more people want the independence that knowledge brings. It's very liberating.
[HTC Rezound] zkrp5108:
This is my exact sentiments. I try to read threads as much as possible to learn as much as I can. Being able to fix issues on the fly saves me from things I mess up, but I always have the knowledge to fix it. Just like you said it is liberating. Plus the more I know the more into I can share with others and I always feel good about helping others with tech issues.

On another note. Flyhalf 5/20 build is running very well my battery consumption was really bad the first few days but as the ROM has settled down it's gotten much better. The only issues (and I mean only issues) are the following.

Rotation in an app before going to home causes system UI crashes. Weird thing is it always changes to the default wallpaper after the crash?

Second is just poor signal, it is getting better but the 4g strength in Chicago is very good and I'm hardly cracking 3 bars in certain areas most of the time I'm 1-2 bars.

Other than that flyhalf you have done a fantastic job with this Rom and furthering the development here. Good work keep it up man we appreciate what you do for us. and thanks for always answering questions I send you.
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
I hear you, I try to learn as much as I can on my own also, between the knowledge here and elsewhere online, the answers are usually a quick search away.

There are times on here you just want to tell someone to search for an answer but then you come off looking like an ass for telling someone to figure it out on their own vs just repeating the same answer that's been posted a 100 times before here... It's a no win situation. :)
[HTC Rezound] wildstang83:
I can explain the weird thing :p

The system looks to the framework for the default system wallpaper when it cannot detect a user defined wallpaper.

Basically, what happened in this incident was the memory was running low, the system tried to save itself from running out by clearing some stuff and crashing out. Basically, reset itself. While going through this reset/crash, your defined choice of wallpaper (this is a memory process) got cleared, therefor the system reverted back to the wallpaper that is stored in the framework.
[HTC Rezound] gleggie:
Thanks for this, I started rooting/flashing back in January and I am glad I learned how to do these things by hand, as its a great learning experience, and you meet some pretty awesome, smart people along the way :)

Just curious, what is the purpose of the JDK? I have been using SDK and ADB fastboot commands to do all my rooting/flashing, but have never run into the need to use JDK? Though I look foward to learning new things.

Edit: Found my answer here: http://xda-university.com/as-a-developer/getting-started-setting-up-android-development-environment

Fly got the signal issue sorted out recently if I remember correctly. I'm just north of Chicago and rarely drop below 3 bars. I'm on 5/25.
